Profile:

One of the several Indian cricketers to have played just one Test, Rakesh Shukla was a pillar of strength for Delhi for many years. He had an excellent record in the Ranji Trophy where his all round skills were seen to good effect. A pugnacious late order batsman and a leg break-googly bowler, Shukla took 313 wickets (18.98) in the national competition. With the bat his finest moment came in the 1981-82 final against Karnataka when he and Rajesh Peter added 118 runs for the unbroken ninth wicket to steer Delhi past the opponent's first innings total of 705 for a memorable triumph. In the only Test he played against Sri Lanka at Madras in 1982-83 (incidentally the first Test between the two countries) Shukla did not get to bat but finished with figures of no wicket for 70 and two for 82, the prized wickets of Roy Dias and Duleep Mendis. But despite continuing to do well around the domestic circuit he was not considered again. (Partab Ramchand)
